Former Jets wideout Braylon Edwards is not in training camp with any NFL teams, but he may be in trouble again.Edwards, a free agent who recently pled guilty to a DWI in Manhattan, was allegedly involved in a melee at a bar in Birmingham, Mich., on Monday, according to a report by Observer and Eccentric, a newspaper in suburban Detroit. A spokesman for the Birmingham (Mich.) Police confirmed that investigators are looking into the matter."The case is evolving as we get more information," a police spokesman said.Edwards, 28, was reportedly in attendance with two cousins, Tre and Edmund Wright, when a fight broke out that resulted in one bouncer being stabbed in the neck with a fork and a second bouncer being stabbed in the hand with a pocketknife. The bar's ownership told the newspaper that Edwards was directly involved, but refused to comment further in a statement.The Wrights were arraigned on charges of felonious assault Monday. They pled not guilty. Edwards had not been charged as of Wednesday night. But the website Deadspin.com says that a bus boy will press charges against the free-agent wideout.There were no serious injuries in the fight.According to the Detroit Free Press, former Knicks guard Jalen Rose was at the bar and, a source told the paper, he tried to break up the brawl."Jalen was a true gentlemen," one employee told the Free Press. Rose, who like Edwards is a University of Michigan product, has had his own legal troubles, sentenced to 20 days in prison for drunk driving.A post on Edwards' Twitter account around the time of the alleged brawl read: "Damn. Get ya knuckles ready" and "Don't fight if. You don't know how."He later deleted the post and claimed that his account was hacked.Edwards is no stranger to legal problems. He was arrested for a DWI in Manhattan during the regular season last September and pled guilty on July 22. Edwards was ordered to pay a $500 fine and had his license suspended for six months and was required to continue to take part in the NFL's substance abuse program. Edwards had a blood alcohol level of .16, twice the legal limit, when he was stopped by police in Manhattan in the early morning hours of Sept. 21, 2010.Previously, he punched a friend of LeBron James in a Cleveland nightclub. He pled no contest for a misdemeanor assault in Ohio in January 2010 and was given 18 months probation, during which he was charged with the DWI in New York. His guilty plea in the New York case triggered the probation hearing that resulted in his probation being extended a year.Earlier Wednesday, Jets coach Rex Ryan said that Gang Green would consider bringing Edwards back for the upcoming season if the price was right."If Braylon wants to come for what we want to pay, come on back," Ryan said after the afternoon walk-through.Last week, the Daily News first reported that a Jets-Edwards reunion wasn't going to happen. A couple days later, Gang Green signed Plaxico Burress to replace Edwards as a tall target for Mark Sanchez."We're looking at everything out there... what we think is in the best interest of our football team," Ryan said. "There isn't one guy that we let go that we would not have liked to have back."However, Edwards appears to be headed to the 49ers on a one-year deal, according to an ESPN report.
